Hey!

Fun w Dewey beach

Thanks to everyone who came and saw/met us at the Dewey beach conference this weekend. We're still on our way back to the burgh and crapped out from this awesome time. Check out the new 28north.net for some pics and behind the scenes videos from our up coming rockumentery.
We saw some awesome bands down there; Filligar, Lowercase Blues, the Shells and more, We also had about the most fun that can be had with a bullhorn, a camera crew, guitars, a 3 foot shark, and some oncoming traffic. Thanks for eveyone that come to check us out. Hope to see some of you at the 8x10 in baltimore next week!

I'm so mung
Tell you all about it
I'm so mung
Tell you how to shout it

Pitstop

I herd somewhere that NASCAR drivers go through more gas in a race then we do in a year. Maybe that's all the drivers in one race compared to one persons yearly guzzlage, or maybe it's hogwash. We're getting ready to leave on leg two of our tour after a seriously relaxing break (only two gigs in four days at home!). From here on it's all uncharted territory so we're pumped for new adventures, meeting new people and bands, and planting our flag in new places including our arguably too friendly neighbors to the north. We'll have some awesome pictures from the firelighting at Farm Jamma Lamma up soon at the brand new myspace.com/28norththeband soon so check it out and look forward to hearing from us.

Can never get enough of these.... Jon Colman for your enjoyment

Here are three 28 North favorites from 2008's Mystery performed live at The Scarlet And Grey Cafe in Columbus, Ohio last Saturday. We're going to be uploading more of these as the tour goes on, and including new songs, obscure songs, and songs from our upcoming record, enjoy!

Morgantown

Thanks to everyone who came out to club octane to rock it with us on a Sunday night. Again not quite the setlist we ended up playing but who cares?
Later to day we are going to be posting some recordings from the first week of tour, a 28 north speaks exclusive, hand written, performed, recorded, mixed, and uploaded from us to you. Check it out.

Picnic tables need love too

That's hot

Cleveland: rocked, stickered

Driving between Cleveland and Columbus, ripping the shit out of 2000 stickers. Why do these things come in rolls? And why didn't we pay the 50 bucks to have them cut? It is strangely satisfying however. Ask for one when you see us!

The ship has sailed, and the 2009 28 North summmer tour is officially under way. Look forward to some inspired hijinks, less than practical jokes and interesting musical exclusives to appear here shortly.

Making The Video

Here are some Pics from the set (our house) of our upcoming video for the song 'New York'. We've been having a great time filming and the video is going to be a great blend of awesomeness and more awesomeness, with a taste of humor and a bit more awesomeness. The video and our 3rd album will be released simultaneously sometime this spring, and its shaping up to be one of those magic monumental epic cultural events like 'Lord of the Rings' or The Pittsburgh Pirates in '09.
more to come...

This is how Colman actually sleeps

Floyd is clearly the best actor amongst us

28 North speaks Highly of West LA Music
Featuring Rick

Music recommendations. For the greater aural good!

Hey Music Fan,
Jon from 28 North at your service! I love turning people on to new music. Being the avid music consumer that I am, I feel compelled to share what has been filling my ear drums over the past year or so. Here we go!

*not in any particular order*

of Montreal - Skeletal Lamping
Danceable, Fragmented, Sexually Robust, Emotionally penetrating; Kevin Barnes has created an endlessly fascinating electro - booty pop adventure! Not for the faint of heart nor the homophobic.

Q-Tip - The Renaissance
Produced by Q-tip himself, the renaissance is a breath of fresh air into a industry filled with "Ring - Tone Rappers". Q- tip's ever conscious lyricism is complemented by several special guests; including D'Angelo, Raphael Saadiq, & Norah Jones. Guranteed to make your head bob.

Marco Benevento - Invisible Baby
For his solo debut, Benevento enlists the help of bassist Reed Mathis and drummers Andrew Barr & Matt Chamberlain. This record would be the perfect accompaniment to a film; ambient & atmospheric, contemplative & reflective, upbeat & engrossing. Make Invisible Baby the soundtrack to your next road trip.

Thievery Corporation - Radio Retalliation
Hypnotically danceable, globe - spanning instrumentation; Add this to your playlist to ensure a sensous evening.

Hot Chip - Made in the Dark
Glorious use of synthesizers combined with memorable melodies/songwriting makes for high replay value. PLUS, they pull it off live! (God Bless em') Check out "Ready for the floor"

: Throw - Back :

Michael Jackson - Off the Wall
You already know the hits, but obscure tracks like "Working Day & Night" are worth giving Off the Wall and second listen. Take note of the inventive percussion parts, as well as the awesome 80's slap bass sounds. Get on the floor and dance!

Check out this music! and if so inclined, let me know what I need to wrap MY ears around.
